  • We arrived at this location and what we though was just another abandoned house with a few old rotten cars.. we had absolutely no idea what cars they were until we saw the Car Company Morgan stamped on a lot of the items... we found Windscreens, body panels even x2 Chassis!!! Hope you enjoy the video guys... 🙂

    I first went here about 10 years ago then decided to revisit fairly recently and it's not drastically changed. There used to be a couple of tractors by the workshop which have now gone, and the white van is a fairly new addition. How they got anything up there is beyond me though! I have since managed to find out who owns it and they are still alive, but like you would be fascinated to know the full story on this one

    Good thing about Morgan cars is that the panels are Aluminium and the exhausts are stainless steel so no chance of rust unless they get contaminated by someone grinding steel over them

  • @Nightcrawlis

    The old owner was probably proud of their workshop and the work they did there. To see that those two Morgan chassis' and Morgan parts have obviously just been thrown in there is heart-breaking isn't it. Just by the sound the door makes as it closes suggests that that chassis at least could still be useable even.

    Peter Morgan owned the plate AB16 and the vehicle, a blue Morgan Plus 8 until his death in late 2003. Prior to that he had the plate on a 1973 Ferrari 365 GT4 2+2 Berlinetta. Question is...How did one of his number plates from his car end up at this find ??? Maybe the site belongs to a member of his family who do not know about it ???

    Yes, you are (as you know) correct about the Reliant Robin it is in fact a 1975 brown Reliant Robin 748cc petrol engine first registered 15th May 1975, Tax expired in 31st March 1992 & the last V5C was issued on 2nd July 2005.
    The Golf E694NKV was a while 1272cc Petrol first registered on 18th July 1988, declared SORN & last V5C was issued on 1st February 2012.

  • @1959BB
    @1959BB 3 роки тому +1

    I wonder if this is somewhere in the midlands around Coventry, as both the blue Reliant under the tree and the Mk2 Golf are Coventry registered cars. It might just be coincidence of course.
    Either way, an amazing find, but certainly the most creepy! I think the fact all the food and cooking stuff have just been left is what makes it strange. Someone interrupted in the middle of their day...

    Love your vids but please please please... Its a Reliant Robin not a Robin Reliant! Its like saying Escort Ford. Reliant is the manufacturer, Robyn was the model. Mk2 golf, Alpine white, I was a painter for VW when they were new. Morgan never ever used a wooden chassis .. Chassis was always metal, the body frame was made from wood (Ash) same as most old coach built cars.
